The problem is simple. Every coldfusion template is already expanded, hence why getTemplatePath can be beneficial. The actual problem is that when you extend a component and it doesn't matter if it's one directory up or 10 up and 2 more in. The extended component takes on the path of the compone

You wouldn't name your own keys this way - on the other hand it's good to know CF can cope with these types of keys if you're writing caching code or something else where you want to associate arbitrary string keys with a value (although I'd probably hash() the string first for good luck).
